Dá-me Almas

Chris Durán's song 'Dá-me Almas' is a heartfelt plea for spiritual awakening and evangelism. The lyrics reflect a deep concern for the state of the world, depicted as being in flames and in desperate need of salvation. Durán questions the value of a multitude of souls, suggesting that he would give everything he has for just one soul. This highlights the immense worth he places on individual lives and their spiritual well-being.

The chorus, with its repeated request for 'almas' (souls) and 'vidas' (lives), emphasizes the urgency and passion behind Durán's message. He also asks for 'águia' (eagles) to fill the sky, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for strong, soaring messengers of faith who can spread the gospel far and wide. The imagery of eagles, known for their strength and vision, underscores the need for powerful and visionary leaders in the mission of evangelism.

Durán's lyrics also touch on the theme of sacrifice, questioning whether one would be willing to give up personal desires to live a life dedicated to a 'grande colheita' (great harvest) of souls. This reflects a call to action for believers to step up and take on the role of preachers and messengers. The song ends with a poignant reminder that without someone to preach, the desperate cries of the world will go unheard, and the message of peace will not be delivered. 'Dá-me Almas' is thus a powerful anthem for those committed to spreading faith and hope in a troubled world.
